I looked through ebay archives and found a bigger one which went for £235. can anyone help me with a valuation, i intend to sell it still but not for a pound any more!! regards, witter

I know nothing about caravans, let alone RARE Mini related caravans but I'd say it's worht more than that! I'd say you'd be wanting more like £1000!

Whack it back on ebay starting at £99 and let it find it's own value.
If you have had that much interest it will soon bid itsef up and as it cost you nothing then it is all profit!

Hello

Its a thompson miniglen on original mini wheels. its stood for at least 28 years on a hard standing under a lean-to. one hub has been freed off and cant get to the other at the moment. It appears to have the original features in working order eg: cusions, curtains, oven, gas lamps etc. etc. chassis is rusting in places and needs attention.

regards

Peter
